FEMA Directed Relief Workers to Not Help Trump Supporters With Hurricane Relief

CNN panelist and Republican strategist Shermichael Singleton greatly upset author and activist Jay Michaelson on Friday’s edition of CNN NewsNight when he said that one reason Kamala Harris lost is because the left has gone too far left on social issues, mainly allowing boys to compete in girls’ sports. While Michaelson falsely accused Singleton of using a “slur,” host Abby Phillip demanded that Singleton be “respectful” to Michaelson in discussing the issue. Michaelson didn’t agree that the issue swung the election, “Obviously, the anti-trans ads, which I found absolutely deplorable, I worked as an LGBTQ activist for ten years, I think it's outrageous and I'm terrified for my trans friends and family members. Those ads were for the base, right? That was to motivate the base to get out there... but I don't think that that is what motivated the swing voters to vote for Trump.”     After some crosstalk at the table, Singleton replied, “I think there are a lot of families out there who, you know, don't believe boys should play girl sports.” Michaelson then lost his mind, “They're not boys. I'm not going to listen to transphobia at this table. I am not going to listen to you call a trans girl a boy, that is just not how it is.” After yet more crosstalk, Singleton asked, “Will you allow me to finish my explanation?” Michaelson would not, “When you use a word that's a slur, I'm going to interrupt. That's not how it is. They're not boys... I'm not going to sit there and listen to that.” Despite Michaelson’s childish behavior, Phillip demanded Singleton change his tone, “Let's reset for a second because, look, this is a really heated issue, right? And, Shermichael, I know you. I know that you understand that people have different views on this. I think out of respect for Jay, like, let's try to talk about this in a way that is respectful.” Clearly annoyed by the whole thing, Singleton began, “Okay. So, let me rephrase this since I'm being targeted here.” Phillip interrupted, “I don't. You're not. Just to be clear, you are not being targeted. I'm specifically saying that I know that you are not intending to be transphobic.” Singleton was not being “transphobic,” intentional or otherwise, as he tried one more time, “So, the way regular people interpret it—” Again, Michaelson cut him off, “That's not regular people. That's not regular people. There's no consensus that these are actually boys. This whole thing about trans girls is a is a canard. It's we're talking about a tiny, tiny sliver of the population and we're using that to take away health care.” As if she and Michaelson had not spent the last several moments interrupting Singleton, Phillip pleaded for him to get to his point, “Hold on. Just get to your point.” Singleton was finally allowed to explain, “My point in terms of its effectiveness, regular people with children look at these things and they say, 'You know what? This is a bit too far. I do not agree with this. I don't like this. I think Democrats are going way too much to the left on social issues.' They're uncomfortable with it.” He added, “A lot of people believe that. A lot of families believe that. You may disagree with that reality, but that's why Republicans kept running those ads over and over and over again because they saw the metrics suggesting that they were working.” Michaelson jumped in again, “And lying in those ads over and over again and using rhetoric like you just used saying this is boys playing girls sports.” Singleton shot back, “What's the language you would prefer?” Michaelson replied, “We're talking about trans girls playing—playing, being allowed to play with the people who are in their gender. And if you don't believe, you don't have to listen to me. Listen to the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association.” Singleton rolled his eyes and said in the tone of voice that indicated the AMA has been corrupted by the politics, “Oh, the American Medical Association—” before he was cut off again as Phillip tried to move on. Republicans didn’t lie. Michaelson is just upset they don’t conform to his perversion of the English language. This year alone, biological males, or “trans girls,” or whatever Michaelson wants to call them, have won middle school shot put competitions, high school track championships, and disrupted NCAA Division I volleyball. Here is a transcript for the November 8 show: CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip 11/8/2024 10:28 PM ET JAY MICHAELSON: Well, but there's the base and there's the swing, right? So, obviously, the anti-trans ads, which I found absolutely deplorable, I worked as an LGBTQ activist for ten years, I think it's outrageous and I'm terrified for my trans friends and family members. Those ads were for the base, right? That was to motivate the base to get out there. And that base, that sort of that MAGA base and the sort of, I would call Christian nationalist base, they did show up, but I don't think that that is what motivated the swing voters to vote for Trump. I do think there's a mismatch between -- you know, Democrats are really good at offering a lot of solutions. ABBY PHILLIP: Are you sure? SHERMICHAEL SINGLETON: I don't think that's just for the base. ERIN PERRINE: Yeah, not in the closing message of the campaign. SINGLETON: I would disagree a little bit with that. [crosstalk] PHILLIP: I'm not so sure, personally. SINGLETON: I think there are a lot of families out there who, you know, don't believe boys should play girl sports. MICHAELSON: They're not boys. I'm not going to listen to transphobia at this table. I am not going to listen to you call a trans girl a boy, that is just not how it is. [crosstalk] SINGLETON: Will you allow me to finish my explanation? MICHAELSON: When you use a word that's a slur, I'm going to interrupt. That's not how it is. They're not boys. PHILLIP: Jay, give him, Jay, just give him one second. MICHAELSON: They're not boys, but they're not playing girls’ softball. I'm not going to sit there and listen to that. PHILLIP: Let's reset for a second because, look, this is a really heated issue, right? And, Shermichael, I know you. I know that you understand that people have different views on this. I think out of respect for Jay, like, let's try to talk about this in a way that is respectful. SINGLETON: Okay. So, let me rephrase this since I'm being targeted here. PHILLIP: I don't. You're not. Just to be clear, you are not being targeted. I'm specifically saying that I know that you are not intending to be transphobic. SINGLETON: He should know that I'm not. I mean, he wants to sit here and blame me – MICHAELSON: I'm saying that you're using a phrase that you know – SINGLETON: So, the way regular people interpret it – MICHAELSON: That's not regular people. That's not regular people. There's no consensus that these are actually boys. This whole thing about trans girls is a is a canard. It's we're talking about a tiny, tiny sliver of the population – SINGLETON: That maybe the case but my point in terms of its effectiveness – MICHAELSON: --and we're using that to take away health care. PHILLIP: Hold on. Just get to your point. SINGLETON: My point in terms of its effectiveness, regular people with children look at these things and they say, “you know what? This is a bit too far. I do not agree with this. I don't like this. I think Democrats are going way too much to the left on social issues.” They're uncomfortable with it. A lot of people believe that. A lot of families believe that. You may disagree with that reality, but that's why Republicans kept running those ads over and over and over again because they saw the metrics suggesting that they were working.

MICHAELSON: We're talking about trans girls playing -- playing, being allowed to play with the people who are in their gender. And if you don't believe, you don't have to listen to me. Listen to the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association. SINGLETON: Oh, the American Medical Association –

An easy, filling family dinner, these Hearty Chicken and Noodles are made with simple ingredients and are 100% comforting! A CREAMY AND COMFORTING MEAL Now that the cooler weather has set in, all I can think of is comfort food. This Hearty Chicken and Noodles is a thick and flavorful meal. It’s not a soup (but it can be made into one), it’s more like a comforting creamy mix of cooked egg noodles, chicken and veggies. It really is a whole meal in one. It’s one of my favorite one pot meals to make and is super easy to put together. You just can’t go wrong with this one. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Is this a chicken noodle soup? This is not a soup. So if you are expecting a lot of liquid or broth, this is not that recipe or I would’ve called it ‘Hearty Chicken Noodle Soup’ right? Ha! You can certainly add more broth to make this more soup-like but chicken and noodles is not the same as chicken noodle soup so please do not mistake this for a soup or you will be disappointed. This is literally chicken and noodles. It cooks like a stew but it thickens quite a bit. What do I do if it is too thick? Depending on the type of noodles you use, some may absorb more liquid than others. I would just add a bit more broth until you get it to the consistency you want. What are dry wide noodles? They are egg noodles but instead of curly they are straight. Sometimes they might be called “Amish Noodles” or “Homestyle Noodles”. They are usually found near the other egg noodles at your grocery store. If you can’t find them, just go with regular egg noodles. What kind of chicken should I use? If you want to be quick, then you can use a rotisserie chicken. Just pull off the meat and shred it or cut it up into chunks. Otherwise you can bake, boil or grill some chicken breasts and shred them. Should I cook noodles separate for chicken and noodles? No. It is not necessary. However, if you want your chicken and noodles to be more “soupy” rather than thick, then you could cook them separately then add them to the pot. How do I store leftover chicken and noodles? Chicken and noodles will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. You can also freeze it. Let the chicken and noodles cool and place in a freezer container. This will keep for up to 3 months. To thaw, remove to the refrigerator overnight and reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) shredded or diced chicken – this is going to be easiest with a rotisserie chicken but you can always roast or boil a couple of chicken breasts. Also, you can dice up the chicken or shred it. Either way works and depends on the texture you prefer. chicken broth – if you are sensitive or need to keep the salt low, I would suggest low or no sodium chicken broth. You can even use your own Homemade Chicken Broth. You can always add in additional salt to taste if you prefer. carrots – you could use frozen diced carrots if you prefer. Some stores sell celery, onion and carrots already pre-diced (also called mirepoix.) You can use that to save some time. bay leaf – I know some people think that adding a bay leaf doesn’t add much flavor but it really does add a wonderful background note that isn’t a strong taste but it gives depth of flavor. However, having said that, if you don’t have any on hand, you can still make this – don’t worry. thyme – I use fresh thyme here because it adds a light thyme flavor. You can certainly use dried, you just don’t need much since dried thyme is stronger than fresh. I put the amount in the recipe card below. salt and pepper – I give measured amounts for salt and pepper in the recipe card but salt and pepper is very subjective when it comes to taste so I always encourage you to start with a little and add more as you prefer. Just taste it and see if you want more. celery onion garlic – generally I love fresh garlic but I have used both the fresh and jarred garlic worked well in this recipe. I tend to need a bit more of the jarred garlic to get that stronger garlic flavor but please go by your tastebuds here. You measure garlic with your heart – ha! dry wide noodles – I discuss this a bit more above in the Frequently Asked Questions section. Refer to my ingredient image below to see the type that I use. milk all-purpose flour – we use this as a thickening agent. If you do not want this thicker, then do not use it. frozen peas – you could also use frozen peas and carrots or if you don’t like pease, just leave it out. HOW TO MAKE HEARTY CHICKEN AND NOODLES: In a large pot over medium high heat, cook carrots with 1 ½ cups broth, 1 bay leaf, salt, pepper, and thyme until carrots are tender. Add into the pot the remaining chicken broth, celery, onion and garlic and let come to a boil. Next add the dry wide noodles to the pot and cook for 5 minutes uncovered. Then after 5 minutes stir in 1 cup of milk and the frozen peas. In a separate pan mix the remaining milk with the all purpose flour over medium heat and slowly whisk the milk and flour together to remove the lumps. Do this for about 3-4 minutes. This is going to be used to thicken the chicken and noodles. Add this milk and flour mixture to the pot with the noodles, vegetables and broth. Finally add the cooked shredded chicken. Let the soup simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and serve hot topped with fresh chopped parsley (optional). Serve and enjoy! WANT MORE DELICIOUS RECIPES?
